4). If it is the notification target, the process proceeds to step S19. On the other hand, if the notification level is “unnecessary”, the information that the transmitted flag described later is set, or the like is not the notification target, the process proceeds to step S24.

Here, in the information totaling section 2b, the name of the person in charge of the current task and the target equipment, the group to which the person in charge belongs, and the terminal number owned by the person in charge are registered in advance. Table (Fig. 5 (c))
Is registered in the table). In the person-in-charge management table, the business name and the target equipment in charge of each person in charge (operator), the group name to which each person in charge belongs, and the terminal number which is the ID number of the terminal equipment 3 owned by the person in charge are registered. Has been done.
Here, the group name is made up of multiple persons who are distinguished by the type of job each person is in charge of (for example, equipment operation, parts replenishment, maintenance and inspection), and it depends on the target equipment. Not classified. Regarding data registration in the person-in-charge management table, depending on the operation method of the terminal device 3, if the same person in charge holds the same terminal device 3 fixedly, the above-mentioned terminal number corresponding to the person in charge is fixed as an initial setting. If the terminal device 3 owned by the person in charge changes due to the change time of the person in charge, etc., it may be newly registered at the start of each work. The same applies to the group name to which the person in charge belongs, the business name in charge, and the target equipment.

With reference to the person-in-charge management table registered in advance in this way, the information aggregating unit 2b proceeds to step S4.
The specific destination terminal device 3 corresponding to the notification level of the trouble information management table which is the notification target in step S19 is determined (step S19).

Next, the information aggregating unit 2b carries out step S19.
The information to be transmitted to the destination terminal device 3 determined in step 3 is sent to the information transmitting unit 2c, and the information transmitting unit 2c wirelessly transmits the information to the designated destination terminal device 3 (step S20). . Here, the information transmitted to the destination terminal device 3 uses voice, characters, images, and moving image data,
Trouble occurrence equipment name, trouble number and contents, occurrence time, and optional information (cause of trouble occurrence, relationship with other equipment troubles, trouble occurrence status image, etc.)
Etc.

Next, the information aggregating unit 2b selects a step S19 from the information registered in the trouble notification table.
A transmitted flag is set for the information transmitted in step S21.

On the other hand, in the terminal device 3, the information receiving section 3a receives the information transmitted from the server 2 in step S20 (step S22). At this time, as described above, since the terminal device 3 automatically receives the above information, the operator who owns the terminal device 3 does not need to perform the incoming call processing such as pressing a predetermined key.

Next, the information receiving unit 3a of the terminal device 3 sends the received information to the information notifying unit 3b, and the information notifying unit 3b.
b notifies the operator who owns the information by a notification method adapted to the information (step S23). For example, when the information includes voice data, immediately after the reception of step S22, the voice data is automatically transmitted to the ear of the owning operator through the electroacoustic transducer 3e provided in the terminal device 3 described above. By using this voice data as data for transmitting the outline of the above information, it is possible to promptly and surely notify the operator of the outline of the transmitted information. Further, the character, image and moving image data are transmitted to the operator by being displayed by a display device (not shown) provided in the terminal device 3.
By using the data displayed on the display device as the data for transmitting the details of the information selected by the operator, the details of the information transmitted in response to the operator's request can be visually notified.

Then, the server 2 determines whether or not the installed electronic component mounting process 4 is completed (step S24). If the electronic component mounting process 4 is still in production,
The process returns to step S1, and when the production is completed, the flow ends.

(2) Notification of Equipment Part Outage Warning On the other hand, when the information totaling unit 2b determines in step S5 that the above information is the remaining number of equipment parts information, the information totaling unit 2b performs an equipment parts shortage warning process. Do (Step S
6). Here, the details of the equipment parts shortage warning process performed by the information totaling unit 2b in step S6 will be described. In addition,
FIG. 6 is a flow chart showing a subroutine of the equipment component shortage warning process performed in step S6, and FIG. 7 is a diagram showing an example of an information table used in the equipment component shortage warning process.

6 and 7, the information totaling unit 2b
Determines whether the received information on the number of remaining equipment parts is equipment part initial value information (step S61). When the information totaling unit 2b determines that the above-described equipment component remaining number information received in step S61 is not the equipment component initial value information,
When the process proceeds to step S63 and it is determined that the information is the equipment component initial value information, the equipment component initial value information is registered in the equipment component remaining number management table (step S62).

In this remaining equipment parts management table, for the "equipment name" and "model name" of each of the equipments 41 to 44 provided in the electronic component mounting step 4, the parts to be supplied to each equipment. "Supply position number" that indicates the supply position to the board, "Part number", "Number" per board, "Initial number" that indicates the supply quantity in the initial state, "Number of uses" from the initial state to the present , The current "remaining number", the expected "remaining time" until the remaining number of parts reaches 0 (sec), and the "sending time" (sec) at which the equipment parts shortage warning notification was sent are registered, and each facility is also registered. The "line tact" (sec) of the entire electronic component mounting process 4 calculated from the production time per substrate of 41 to 44 is registered. When a buffer is set between the equipments 41 to 45 shown in FIG. 1, the equipments 41 to 45 can operate even with different production tacts as many as the buffers can absorb. Therefore, the "line tact" may be set separately depending on the equipment 41 to 45.

FIG. 7A shows the above-mentioned step S62.
3 is a diagram showing a state in which the information totaling unit 2b has registered the equipment component initial value information in the equipment component remaining number management table. FIG. Figure 7
As shown in (a), the "supply position number", "part number", and "number of parts" of the parts corresponding to the "equipment name" and "model name" included in the equipment part initial value information received before the operation. , And “initial number” are registered in the remaining equipment part number management table. The "number of uses" is reset to 0 because it is before operation. The "remaining number" is "remaining number" = "initial number"-"number of uses", and the "remaining time" is Is calculated by “remaining time” = “remaining number” / “number of members” × “line tact”.

Next, the information aggregating unit 2b judges whether or not the received equipment component remaining number information is equipment component used number information (step S63). If the information totaling unit 2b determines that the remaining equipment component number information received in step S63 is not the equipment component usage number information, the flow ends, and if it is determined that the equipment component usage number information, the equipment The information on the number of used parts is registered in the remaining equipment part number management table (step S64), and the flow is ended.

FIG. 7B is a diagram showing an example of the equipment part usage number information. As shown in FIG. 7B, the information is sequentially transmitted from each of the equipments 41 to 44 provided in the electronic component mounting step 4 as information indicating the “number of uses” from the initial state to the present. “Supply position number” and “number of uses” are shown for “equipment name” and “model name”. The information totaling unit 2b uses the above-described equipment component usage number information in the equipment component remaining number management table created in step S62 to determine the "use number" corresponding to each component.
Is updated, and the "remaining number" and "remaining time" are calculated and updated using the updated "used number" in the same manner as described above.

Returning to FIG. 3, the information aggregating unit 2b determines whether or not the "remaining time" of the equipment part remaining number management table is equal to or less than the specified time (step S7). Here, the stipulated time is a time (sec) for transmitting a parts-out warning in advance before the remaining number of parts becomes 0. For example, if you want to send out-of-parts warning notifications 20 minutes and 10 minutes before the remaining number of parts becomes 0, the specified time is "1200se".
c "and" 600 sec "are set. Information totaling section 2
b refers to the "remaining time" of the above-mentioned equipment part remaining number management table with respect to such a preset specified time, and if there is information corresponding to the specified time or less, the next step for that information Proceed to S8, and for information that is equal to or longer than the specified time, proceed to step S24.

Next, the information aggregating unit 2b judges whether or not the parts shortage warning notification corresponding to the specified time has been transmitted to the information judged to be less than the specified time in step S7 (step S8). ). This is determined by whether or not a time corresponding to the specified time is registered in the "transmission time" of the remaining equipment part management table (registration of the "transmission time" will be described later). Information tab 2b
Goes to the next step S19 if the part-out warning notification corresponding to the specified time has not been sent, and goes to step S24 if it has been sent.

Next, the information aggregating unit 2b refers to the above-mentioned person-in-charge management table registered in advance and refers to step S8.
In step S19, the person in charge of replenishing the parts in the remaining number of equipment parts management table targeted for the out-of-parts warning notification is searched for and a specific destination terminal device 3 is determined (step S19).

Next, the information aggregating unit 2b carries out step S19.
The out-of-parts warning notification information to be transmitted to the destination terminal device 3 determined in step 1 is sent to the information transmission part 2c, and the information transmission part 2c
The information is wirelessly transmitted to the designated destination terminal device 3 (step S20). Here, the information transmitted to the destination terminal device 3 uses voice, characters, images, and moving image data, and uses the equipment name of the component out-of-warning warning, the part out-of-part location (part reel setting position number, etc.), the part name (part (Part number, etc.), expected time of parts outage, remaining time, remaining number, and option information (parts detailed information, parts manufacturer name, parts shape, parts inventory status, etc.).

Next, the information aggregating unit 2b selects a step S from the information registered in the remaining equipment parts management table.
With respect to the information transmitted in 19, the remaining time when the above-mentioned component-out warning notification information is transmitted is set as a transmission completion flag as "transmission time" (step S21). Figure 7
FIG. 7C is a diagram showing an example of the remaining equipment component number management table in which “transmission time” is set as the transmission completion flag in step S21. In FIG. 7C, the “remaining time” is updated by the equipment part number-of-use information in step S64 described above, and the “remaining time” becomes “1125 sec”, so that the specified time “1200 sec” or less is satisfied. As described above, this is the information that has been the subject of the parts shortage warning notification. As for this information, since the parts shortage warning notification is transmitted immediately after it becomes the notification target, the above step S2 is performed.
"Transmission time: 1125 sec" as the transmitted flag of 1
Is set. As a result, at the time of the next update, it is possible to determine that the transmission has already been completed within the transmission time “1125 sec” for the specified time “1200 sec” or less, and therefore the information repeatedly transmitted at the same specified time is transmitted. There is nothing to do.

On the other hand, in the terminal device 3, the information receiving section 3a receives the parts-out warning notification information transmitted from the server 2 in step S20 (step S22). At this time, as described above, since the terminal device 3 automatically receives the above information, the operator who owns the terminal device 3 does not need to perform the incoming call processing such as pressing a predetermined key.

Next, the information receiving unit 3a of the terminal device 3 sends the received information to the information notifying unit 3b, and the information notifying unit 3b.
b notifies the operator who owns the information by a notification method adapted to the information (step S23). For example, when the information includes voice data, immediately after the reception of step S22, the voice data is automatically transmitted to the ear of the owning operator through the electroacoustic transducer 3e provided in the terminal device 3 described above. By using this voice data as data for transmitting the outline of the above information, it is possible to promptly and surely notify the operator of the outline of the transmitted information. Further, the character, image and moving image data are transmitted to the operator by being displayed by a display device (not shown) provided in the terminal device 3.
By using the data displayed on the display device as the data for transmitting the details of the information selected by the operator, the details of the information transmitted in response to the operator's request can be visually notified.

Then, the server 2 determines whether or not the installed electronic component mounting process 4 is completed (step S24). If the electronic component mounting process 4 is still in production,
The process returns to step S1, and when the production is completed, the flow ends.

When the operator receives the parts-out warning notification information, the operator usually replenishes the parts having sent the information with the parts. For example, FIG.
It is a figure which shows the remaining number management table of equipment parts which shows the state which replenished the said 5000 parts with respect to the notification information of the parts exhaustion warning demonstrated by (c). Here, since the operator replenishes 5000 parts to the part, the number (+5000) replenished to the “initial value” of the part is added as the above-mentioned equipment part initial value information from the replenished equipment. The generated information is transmitted, and the remaining equipment part number management table is updated in step S62. With this update, the "remaining number" and the "remaining time" are newly calculated, so that the part is excluded from the parts outage warning target, and the "transmission time" is also reset to unregistered.

Even if the operator receives the above-mentioned parts-out warning notification information but does not replenish the parts to which the information has been sent, the next warning time (for example, when the specified time is "600 sec"). ), The second part-out warning notification information is sent to the operator according to the same flow, and the “transmission time” of the remaining equipment parts management table is sent.
Will also be updated. Furthermore, when the operator does not replenish the relevant part in response to the component shortage warning notification information and the "remaining number" of the relevant component becomes 0, the equipment in which the "remaining number" becomes 0 is as described above. Information on server 2 as equipment trouble information
Is sent to the device trouble notification process described above.

(3) Equipment Quality Change Notification On the other hand, when the information aggregating unit 2b determines in step S9 described above that the information is the equipment quality information, the information aggregating unit 2
b performs equipment quality change notification processing (step S1).
0). Here, the details of the equipment quality change notification process performed by the information aggregating unit 2b in step S10 will be described. 8 is a diagram showing an example of an information table used in the facility quality change notification processing.

In step S10, the information aggregating unit 2b registers the equipment quality information received as the equipment quality change notification processing in the equipment quality information management table. FIG. 8A is a diagram showing an example of registration in the equipment quality information management table based on the equipment quality information for each nozzle that picks up and mounts a component provided in the component mounter 43. In FIG. 8A, in the equipment quality information relating to the nozzles transmitted from the component mounting machine 43, “equipment name”, “model name” indicating the component mounting machine 43, and “nozzle type”. "Nozzle number" indicates the number of times of each operation, "Number of picked up parts", "Number of mounted parts", "Number of picked up errors" indicating the error that the nozzle could not pick up the part at the time of picked up, When picked up Includes information such as "Vertical suction error number" that indicates an error in which the nozzle component position is significantly displaced, and "Recognition error number" that indicates a displacement error when the camera recognizes the position of the component suctioned by the nozzle. ing. The information aggregating unit 2b uses the information included in the equipment quality information, the "adsorption rate (%)" indicating the rate of successful adsorption calculated from the information, and the "mounting rate (%)" indicating the rate of successful installation. ) ”Is registered in the equipment quality information management table.

FIG. 8B shows the electronic component mounting process 4
It is a figure which shows an example registered into the said equipment quality information management table based on the equipment quality information transmitted from the inspection machine 45 (gamma) provided in the last process of FIG. In FIG. 8B, the above-mentioned equipment quality information transmitted from the inspection machine 45γ includes “inspection number” indicating the number of inspected boards and mounting points for each inspection “equipment name” and “model name”. The information also includes "the number of inspection points", "the number of defective boards" and "the number of defective points" indicating the number of boards and the mounting points where the defects are detected by the inspection. The information totaling unit 2b is
The above information included in the equipment quality information, and the "board failure rate (%)" and "mounting site failure rate (%)" indicating the failure rate for each board and each mounting location calculated from the above information are equipment quality information. Register in the management table.

Next, the information aggregating unit 2b determines whether or not the information registered in the equipment quality information management table is worse than the specified condition (step S11), and the information that has deteriorated is judged. Goes to the next step S12, and if the information is not worse than the specified condition, step S12
Proceed to 24. Here, for example, in the case of the component mounting machine 43, the following items are set in advance as the prescribed conditions. In the case of the component mounting machine 43 (A) "Suction error number" is the specified number of times or more (B) "Mounting error number" is the specified number of times or more (C) "Suction error" is the specified number of times or more continuously (D) ""Equipmenterror" occurs continuously for a specified number of times or more (E) "Adsorption rate" is less than or equal to the specified rate (F) "Installation rate" is less than or equal to the specified rate For example, the information aggregating unit 2b indicates that the specified rate of the condition (F) is If it is set at 99.5%, in the equipment quality information management table of FIG. 8A, the nozzle numbers 1 and 2 of MV-1 are “mounting rate” 99.4%, so step S
In 11, it is judged that the condition is worse than the specified condition. Further, for example, in the case of the component mounting machine 43, the following items are set in advance as the prescribed conditions. In the case of the inspection machine 45γ, (G) “the number of defectives” is a specified number or more (H) “the number of defective parts” is a specified number or more (I) “the defect” is continuously generated a specified number of times or more (J) “board defect rate Is equal to or higher than a specified rate (K). “Mounted part defective rate” is equal to or higher than a specified rate. For example, when the specified rate of the condition (J) is set to 1.00%, the information aggregating unit 2b in FIG. In the equipment quality information management table of), IP-2 is “board defect rate”
Since it is 1.00%, it is determined in step S11 that the condition is worse than the specified condition.

Next, the information aggregating unit 2b operates in step S11.
It is determined whether or not the equipment quality change notification corresponding to the specified condition is transmitted to the information determined to be worse than the specified condition in step S12. This is in the "transmission condition" of the equipment quality information management table,
It is determined whether the same prescribed condition as the prescribed condition selected in step S11 has already been registered (registration of "transmission condition" will be described later). Information tab 2b
If the equipment quality change notification corresponding to the specified condition of the information has not been transmitted, the process proceeds to the next step S19, and if it has been transmitted, the process proceeds to step S24.

Next, the information aggregating unit 2b refers to the above-mentioned person-in-charge management table registered in advance and refers to step S1.
In step 2, the person in charge of the equipment targeted for equipment quality change notification is searched from the equipment quality information management table, and a specific destination terminal device 3 is determined (step S19).

Then, the information aggregating unit 2b carries out step S19.
The equipment quality change notification information to be transmitted to the transmission destination terminal device 3 determined in step 1 is transmitted to the information transmission part 2c, and the information transmission part 2c
The information is wirelessly transmitted to the designated destination terminal device 3 (step S20). Here, the information transmitted to the destination terminal device 3 uses voice, characters, images, and moving image data, the quality change occurrence equipment name, the quality change occurrence place (part supply position and part position on the board), part Name (part number), quality change occurrence time, quality change occurrence content (defective error number), and option information (quality change occurrence detailed information, error image, time-series fluctuation status until quality change occurs, etc.).

Next, the information aggregating unit 2b selects a step S from the information registered in the equipment quality information management table.
With respect to the information transmitted in 19, the corresponding prescribed condition of the equipment quality change notification information is set as a “transmission flag” as a “transmission condition” (step S21).

FIGS. 8 (c) and 8 (d) are diagrams showing an example of the equipment quality information management table in which the "transmission condition" is set as the transmitted flag in step S21.
In FIG. 8C, as described in FIG. 8A, the nozzle numbers 1 and 2 of MV-1 are notification targets in the equipment quality information management table in the component mounting machine 43, and step S21
It is an example in which the transmission completed flag is set. Since these pieces of equipment quality change notification information are transmitted under the above-mentioned prescribed condition (F), "F" is set in the "transmission condition" of the equipment quality information management table in step S21. When the notification target is transmitted under a plurality of the prescribed conditions, the corresponding prescribed conditions are set in the “transmission condition” of the equipment quality information management table.

Further, as shown in FIG. 8 (d), as described in FIG. 8 (b), IP-2 is the subject of notification in the equipment quality information management table in the inspection machine 45γ, and the transmitted flag is set in step S21. This is an example. Since this equipment quality change notification information is transmitted under the above-mentioned prescribed condition (J), "J" is set in the "transmission condition" of the equipment quality information management table in step S21. When the notification target is transmitted under a plurality of the prescribed conditions, the corresponding prescribed conditions are set in the “transmission condition” of the equipment quality information management table.

On the other hand, in the terminal device 3, the information receiving section 3a receives the equipment quality change notification information transmitted from the server 2 in step S20 (step S22). At this time, as described above, since the terminal device 3 automatically receives the above information, the operator who owns the terminal device 3 does not need to perform the incoming call processing such as pressing a predetermined key.

Next, the information receiving unit 3a of the terminal device 3 sends the received information to the information notifying unit 3b, and the information notifying unit 3b.
b notifies the operator who owns the information by a notification method adapted to the information (step S23). For example, when the information includes voice data, immediately after the reception of step S22, the voice data is automatically transmitted to the ear of the owning operator through the electroacoustic transducer 3e provided in the terminal device 3 described above. By using this voice data as data for transmitting the outline of the above information, it is possible to promptly and surely notify the operator of the outline of the transmitted information. Further, the character, image and moving image data are transmitted to the operator by being displayed by a display device (not shown) provided in the terminal device 3.
By using the data displayed on the display device as the data for transmitting the details of the information selected by the operator, the details of the information transmitted in response to the operator's request can be visually notified.

Then, the server 2 determines whether or not the installed electronic component mounting process 4 is completed (step S24). If the electronic component mounting process 4 is still in production,
The process returns to step S1, and when the production is completed, the flow ends.

When the operator receives the equipment quality change notification information, the operator usually takes measures to improve the quality of the equipment that has transmitted the information. For example, in FIG.
For the nozzle numbers 1 and 2 of the MV-1 that have been notified in the equipment quality information management table described in (c), by taking measures such as nozzle replacement, the above-mentioned prescribed conditions (A) to (F). ) When the quality is further improved, the information is excluded from the notification target, and the transmitted flag is reset from the above “transmission condition”.

Even if the operator receives the equipment quality change notification information but does not take the above measures for the equipment that has transmitted the information, the information continues to be the notification target in step S11. Since the transmitted flag is set, it is excluded from the notification targets in step S12. That is, the same equipment quality change notification information is not continuously transmitted, and double transmission is prevented.

(4) Notification of Equipment Production Progress On the other hand, when the information aggregating unit 2b determines in step S13 that the above information is equipment production progress information, the information aggregating unit 2b performs equipment production progress notification processing ( Step S
14). Here, the details of the facility production progress notification processing performed by the information aggregating unit 2b in step S14 will be described. 9 is a diagram showing an example of an information table used in the facility production progress notification processing.

In step S14, the information aggregating unit 2b registers the equipment production progress information received as the equipment production progress notification processing in the equipment production record information management table. FIG. 9A is a diagram showing an example of registration in the equipment production record information management table based on the equipment production progress information. In FIG. 9A, in the equipment production progress information, “total equipment quantity” and “current production quantity” indicating the planned lot production quantity of the respective boards for “equipment name” and “model name” are shown. Alternatively, it includes information on "production / inspected number" indicating the number of boards that have been inspected. Using these pieces of information, the information aggregating unit 2b multiplies the "total planned number of sheets" by the ratio of the planned time for the production and the elapsed time up to the present time to calculate the current target number of board production as the "current target number". The number of sheets is calculated. Further, the information totaling unit 2b calculates the "difference" by subtracting the "current target number" from the "production / inspection number". Then, the information aggregating unit 2b registers the information included in the equipment production progress information and the "current target number of sheets" and the "difference" calculated from the information in the equipment production record information management table.

Next, the information aggregating unit 2b judges whether or not the information registered in the equipment production record information management table is a prescribed condition (step S15), and the information of the prescribed condition is determined as follows. The process proceeds to step S16, and if the information does not satisfy the specified condition, the process proceeds to step S24. Here, for example, the following items are preset as the prescribed conditions. (A) The "difference" is greater than the specified production delay number (production delay) (B) The "total planned number of sheets" and the "production / inspection number" are equal (end of lot production) For example, the information totaling unit 2b uses the above conditions. When the prescribed production delay number in (A) is set to -100, the "difference" is greater than -100 for all the information in the equipment production progress information management table in FIG. 9A, so step S15 It is judged that it is the information of the prescribed conditions. In addition, when the said system is provided in the serial electronic component mounting process 4, each equipment 41-
Numerical values such as “production / inspection number” of 45 are almost the same.
Therefore, in the equipment production record information management table,
The electronic component mounting process 4 may be managed by a representative equipment that is predetermined.

Next, the information aggregating unit 2b carries out step S15.
It is determined whether or not the equipment production progress notification is transmitted in the time zone in which the information is determined to be the information on the prescribed condition in step S16 (step S16). This is whether the information selected in step S15 is registered in the “transmission time” of the equipment production record information management table (registration of “transmission time” will be described later) and “transmission time”. If there is a registration in, it is determined whether the time has passed a preset time with respect to the current time. For example, the set time is “10 min”
The time until the same information such as “30 min” or the like is retransmitted is set. If the equipment production progress notification is not transmitted in the time zone in which the information is close, the information totaling unit 2b proceeds to the next step S19, and if it is already transmitted in the close time zone, proceeds to step S24.

Next, the information aggregating unit 2b refers to the above-mentioned person-in-charge management table registered in advance and refers to step S1.
In step 6, the person in charge of the equipment targeted for the equipment production progress notification is searched from the equipment production record information management table, and a specific destination terminal device 3 is determined (step S19).

Then, the information aggregating unit 2b carries out step S19.
The equipment production progress notification information to be transmitted to the transmission destination terminal device 3 determined in step 1 is transmitted to the information transmission part 2c, and the information transmission part 2c
The information is wirelessly transmitted to the designated destination terminal device 3 (step S20). Here, the information transmitted to the transmission destination terminal device 3 uses voice, characters, images, and moving image data to target equipment name or target line name, change occurrence time, change occurrence content (production count, difference count, lot). The number of production completions, etc.) and option information (error rate, line operation rate, time-series fluctuation status until occurrence, etc.).

Next, the information aggregating unit 2b transmits the equipment production progress notification information as a transmission completion flag to the information transmitted in step S19 from the information registered in the equipment production record information management table. The set time is set as the "transmission time" (step S21).

FIG. 9B is a diagram showing an example of the equipment production record information management table in which "transmission time" is set as the transmission completion flag in step S21. Figure 9 (b)
As shown in FIG. 9 (a), all the information in the equipment production record information management table becomes the notification target, and step S2
This is an example in which the transmitted flag is set in 1. In these equipment production progress notification information, the time when each piece of information is transmitted is set to the "transmission time" of the equipment production record information management table in step S21.

On the other hand, in the terminal device 3, the information receiving section 3a receives the facility production progress notification information transmitted from the server 2 in step S20 (step S22). At this time, as described above, since the terminal device 3 automatically receives the above information, the operator who owns the terminal device 3 does not need to perform the incoming call processing such as pressing a predetermined key.

Next, the information receiving unit 3a of the terminal device 3 sends the received information to the information notifying unit 3b, and the information notifying unit 3b.
b notifies the operator who owns the information by a notification method adapted to the information (step S23). For example, when the information includes voice data, immediately after the reception of step S22, the voice data is automatically transmitted to the ear of the owning operator through the electroacoustic transducer 3e provided in the terminal device 3 described above. By using this voice data as data for transmitting the outline of the above information, it is possible to promptly and surely notify the operator of the outline of the transmitted information. Further, the character, image and moving image data are transmitted to the operator by being displayed by a display device (not shown) provided in the terminal device 3.
